Chicken Scampi with Buttery Potatoes is the perfect meal for your family.  Juicy chicken, a buttery scampi sauce soaked into red potatoes making everyone ask for seconds.

Looking for a quick and easy meal for your family?  How about a delicious appetizer for your friends?  My family is loving I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® Spread recipe for Chicken Scampi Bites.  I’ve tweaked it a bit to our liking and we’ve had it several times over the holiday weeks.  It’s simple to make and a delicious meal to eat.  I really only made a few tweaks to the original recipe, like removing the tomatoes and citrus peel that hubby would most likely push aside, baby girl too (I make her recipe too using pork!).  Actually we’re pretty exited about CHICKEN this month.  Tomorrow we’re heading to the Food Allergist for Kay’s FPIES annual check up.  This month makes 20 months since she has failed chicken and that means it’s time to RETRIAL!   What does that mean?  We get to be admitted to the hospital and watch Kay eat chicken.  Hopefully she passes the food trial and we can cross chicken off the triggers lists!

Buttery Caramel Sauce | ShopRite – I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® sale #timetobelieve

Buttery Caramel Sauce

This buttery and delicious caramel sauce is so good poured over fresh apples and even ice cream!  It would be even better drizzled over a fresh apple pice.  Using II Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® cuts down on the fat, but not the flavor.  My grandparents loved I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!®  and most of my family still enjoys it.  While I love real butter, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® holds many memories!  My grandparents would buy it back when it was in a round tub and melt it over fresh homemade batch of Pierogi.  To me Pierogi isn’t the same without I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!®.  I really love to have it and treasure those memories we had.  It’s funny how most of my memories only mom’s side are about food.  We’re definitely a foodie family.

New England Clam Chowder Recipe with Flounder

Posted by Courtney Lopez on

A rich and creamy New England Clam Chowder recipe where we swapped Flounder for Clams.  Very subtle flavor of the sea with the flounder make this a great soup for FPIES trailing something new.

New England Clam Chowder Recipe with Flounder

We recently wanted to add another protein to Kay’s diet.  Since she has FPIES we have to trial each new food she tries.  We’ve contemplated turkey for quite some time, but “chickened” out thanks to her Chicken FPIES food allergy.  Doctors typically say that after 18 months to 2 years you can retrial the trigger foods.  Since chicken and turkey are so close, we’ve decided to hold off for now.  Right now her only safe proteins are beef, pork, salmon, and we’re working on flounder!

Chocolate Chip Scone, Cookies! | Soy Free

It’s a cookie, it’s a scone, it’s Chocolate Chip Scone, Cookies!

Chocolate Chip Scone Cookies

I like scones, Kay likes cookies.  So I made a combination of the two and we’re both happy!  When we went to the Gluten and Allergen Free Expo at the beginning of the month we found a few chocolate brands that don’t contain soy.  We typically used Enjoy Life Foods whenever we made chocolate chip cookies, but this time we tried PASCHA chocolate this time.  PASCHA is free of the top allergens.  I fell in love with the coffee chocolate bar I bought at the expo.   Since Kay was diagnosed with FPIES we’ve found so many amazing products and options.
